Time to Ski!

Necks better, been running lots to get fit, snow is falling and guess what…? It’s time to hit the slopes while the tourists are still at home and the kids are at school. That’s the plan anyway, whether it works like that, who knows.

Avoriaz is opening permanently for the 2008/2009 season on Saturday, Greg, Alex, Andy and I are hopefully hitting the slopes for a day of fun playing in the white powder. Looking forward to my burger or spaghetti as well. Yum.

Are thinking this year I may just take up snowboarding! Will have to have a better think about it though. Will definately need lessons as it’s been 7 years and I was rubbish and a lot younger then. I’m almost 30 now! Hard to believe! I thought it was hard then! 

I figure if I don’t do it this year, I probably never will. The walking frame will be out for the 2009/2010 season (as I will be almost 31 by then) and the most I will probably be able to achieve is a slow walk over to the cafe for a vin chaud. If I am really lucky a quick slide down the greens at Linderets.

Maybe I am being a bit dramatic. Time for some trash TV (eg: Gossip Girl).
